Are fishes crazy when they go insane? Does a hen ever sing her lay? Can you bring relief to a window pane? Can you mend the break of day? What kind of vegetable is a policeman s beat? Is a newspaper white when its read? Is a baker broke when he s making dough? Is an undertaker s business dead? Is the wallpaper store a good hotel Just because of the borders there? Would you paint a rabbit on a bald man s head Just to see a little hair grown there? ---Unknown
